Digital BW, The Print

hmm...  much to ponder about without getting analysis-paralysis.  
thanks to all the responses so far to get me thinking.  certainly a 
complex problem with many things to consider. i probably should 
clarify to say that my expectations are not to match lenswork 
exactly.  i don't need to hit the target dead on.  just want to get 
close and then tweak it to my taste from there.

paul, can you elaborate a bit on your ink selection comments?  when i 
checked with MIS, they said the only ink available for the 4800 
printer was the ultratone-3D, so some of the inks you mentioned 
(e.g., Eboni MK, MIS 4K-PK) is not available for my printer.

also, can you explain why knowing paper white is important?  and how 
do i measure paper white?  and what do i do with the measurement once 
i get it?  are there paper white data published anywhere without my 
having to go through and measure each and every one i'm interested in?

what i've gathered from your comments so far is to use...
1.  MIS inkset (but not sure which ones for the 4800) with one 
channel for the gloss optimizer
2.  QTR
3.  PrintFix Pro
4.  papers (dependent on paper white) - maybe premier art smooth BW 
as a starting point.

correct?
